This list represents the DNA tests and databases for which OFA has an exclusive arrangement with the University of Missouri. If you do not see the disease you’re looking for, check the Other DNA Tests and Labs.
The University of Missouri Canine Genetics Lab has transitioned from sampling using FTA cards to more traditional buccal (cheek) swabs. Like the cards, the buccal swab collection process is non-invasive and no veterinary appointment is necessary. Samples are sent to the University of Missouri Canine Genetics Lab for processing. Results will be forwarded to the OFA and the OFA will issue the resulting reports. Results and any OFA certificates will be sent electronically to the email address used when placing the order.
The tests listed below can be ordered online by clicking the ORDER button. The fee for all OFA/University of Missouri DNA tests is $65 per test. The price includes automatic registration of the results in the OFA database. The OFA will send the test kit which will include two buccal (cheek) swabs, an order confirmation sheet with bar code labels, and the Sample Collection Instructions.
